It does affect life a lot, I know it did for me. I remember when i had much free time, but these days i am so much into bitcoin that i miss the free time.
Trading, checking the ICO's reading about new projects. It's very time consuming, in a good way offcourse.
It may very well change the view of some things you see in life, like savings, investing, trading... since everything is kind of easier, more convenient with btc.
